Mixing style and other changes in a patch

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



In the last few days, I've seen both of these kinds of review comments (not necessarily on my own patches or from the same reviewers).

(a) "Please fix the style in the entire function where you changed one line."

(b) "This style change should be in a separate patch."

It's clearly not helpful to have patches delayed for both reasons.  Which should prevail?  I think our general practice has been more toward (b) and that's also my personal preference.  In that case instances of (a) should not occur.  Or maybe people feel it should be the other way around.  Can we get a consensus here?
